"Lovely property! Ana was great!"

Aldeia da Fonte Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Personnel très accueillant Très bon service Chambre très confortable"

Internacional Azores Boutique

10/10 Excellent

"Nice clean shared dorm room. Bit hot at night but OK with the windows open and AC was also working. Very central location - especially great if you’re diving. Also a large parking lot a few minutes away if you’re driving. Would recommend again"

Hotel do Canal

10/10 Excellent

"5/5"

The Book Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Every single staff member was warm and welcoming. The hotel is well-maintained and the room was very clean. The Japanese toilet in the room was a nice amenity, and toiletries were also available on the bathroom counter. The bed was comfortable and I like the different lighting options you can use. The pool was my favorite feature of the hotel. It's on the roof where you can also access the spa. The pool and hot tub are connected so you can easily switch from one to the other. It's a small, shallow pool, so there is no diving and not much room to swim - all you can pretty much do is just float in the pool, which is really all you need. The hotel is a block away from a park/garden and a couple of blocks away from the marina. Everything is walkable. The front desk staff were very helpful. They gave me great suggestions for restaurants, shopping, and even helped me reserve a taxi tour of the island. I will definitely be staying here again."

Pico TERRAMAR & SPA

10/10 Excellent

"Well located near restaurants and continente supermarket. Very clean and helpful staff. The breakfast was great and also the restaurant for lunch and dinner."

Azoris Faial Garden

10/10 Excellent

Azores Youth Hostels - Pico

10/10 Excellent

"The hostel is such a lovely place, very good located and the staff was really helpful, wherever you need they are always there to help you. Very nice and peaceful place. 100% recommended. The unic thing that I missed was a kitchen so you can cook your own food. But there are very nice local restaurants beside the hostel."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Sao Mateus?

The best area to stay in Sao Mateus is along the coastline, particularly around the main village centre and towards the fishing harbour.This area offers a blend of local life and convenience. You'll find a selection of local restaurants serving fresh seafood, small shops, and the charming Igreja de São Mateus church. The main road, Estrada Regional, runs through here, connecting you to other parts of the island. Being right by the sea means many accommodations boast lovely ocean views.For couples looking for a relaxing escape, staying near the fishing harbour is ideal. It's a pleasant spot for evening strolls, watching the boats, and enjoying dinner with a view of the water. The pace here is unhurried, great for unwinding.Families might prefer options a little further along the coast but still within easy reach of the village. These often provide more space and direct access to quieter coves for swimming or exploring the tidal pools.
